IMAGE COMICS(W/A/CA) Bob Fingerman
Three years after Rob Hoffman said "I do," concluding the original run of MINIMUM WAGE, he finds himself divorced, back home with mom, trying online dating, and transitioning from doing comics for adult magazines to redefining himself as artist on a superhero franchise. Juggling mutant horseshoe crabs, new girlfriends, and more, Rob and the gang are back in this collection of the first all-new arc of BOB FINGERMAN's slice-of-life series.
With tons of bonus material, including sketches, covers and a guest gallery featuring Bill Sienkiewicz, Brandon Graham, Farel Dalrymple, Carla Speed McNeil, J. Bone, Joe Flood, Danny Hellman, Maria Schneider, Kristen McCabe, Scott Kester, Gregory Benton, Joe Dator, Douglas Holgate, Mark Stafford and Gideon Kendall.
"I'm blown away by the quality and craftsmanship. Whether you read the original series or not, you'll fall right into step wit this story. Pick it up and don't put it down."
--Bleeding Cool
"One of the sharpets looks at the human struggle that mainstream comics will produce this year. Not bad for a comic that seeded its roots int he very specific '90s landscape of Indie Comics. It's more relevant and personal than ever."
--Multiversity
"MINIMUM WAGE has sympathy and catharsis to offer those of us who feel like we've never quite gotten the hang of adulthood. Perhaps a more accurate warning might be, 'For reluctantly mature readers.'"
--The Daily Record
"Bob Fingerman takes the risque magic of the old underground comics and shows us that it can still be revealing."
--Newsarama
"If Proust were alive today and writing for alt-comics, I think he'd be dong the same kind of thing."
--Matt Nix
